57 v 57, backs to us in the square.

The shifty surface screws Hind and our thrust forward.

We get it, run to 55… slip as kicking. Goes straight to defender. Rats. They clear.

Intercept mark by them in our F50.

Damnit. Poster set shot by Bobcat.

7.11 we trail 11.7

Pump back in. Literally through Franga s hands. Pumped out. We mark, chip kick in for mark. Miss.

Kick it in. Ball up.

Back in our F50 again. They clear it again.

Francis hurt in a tackle.

Francis gets it in middle. Wheels ignoring guy running past, tackled, holding the ball.

And coming off gingerly with two trainers.

Technically I think he does everything gingerly.

Stants from 55, touched on way through.

54-73

Stanton good mark on 50. Kicks…, nobody shepherds it through. Touched behind.

The radio blokes just said the Bombers meds were assessing Franga’s knee, but he did walk off, fingers crossed.

Long gets lucky as a clanger goes over his head for OOBF.

They score a goal.

FFS Long. Somehow they fail to convert. McNeice then gives it straight back to them. FFS.

54-79
